What is 2.75 percent of 67.15 - step by step solution

To get the solution, we are looking for, we need to point out what we know.

1. We assume, that the number 67.15 is 100% - because it's the output value of the task.
2. We assume, that x is the value we are looking for.
3. If 67.15 is 100%, so we can write it down as 67.15=100%.
4. We know, that x is 2.75% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=2.75%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 67.15=100%
2) x=2.75%
where left sides of both of them have the same units, and both right sides have the same units, so we can do something like that:
67.15/x=100%/2.75%
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for what is 2.75% of 67.15

67.15/x=100/2.75
(67.15/x)*x=(100/2.75)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
67.15=36.3636363636*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (36.3636363636) to get x
67.15/36.3636363636=x
1.846625=x
x=1.846625

now we have:
2.75% of 67.15=1.846625
